<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Varo: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Varo, still
annoyed at the boy, has pushed him out of her mind for now. If he keeps
watching & is seen, one of the trolls might spot him & raise an
alarm to its fellows &, since for the moment she was apparently being
ignored by them, any seen movement by the boy raises a risk of them also
spotting her & spoiling her current plan.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Time to pitch in
& help the others. She ducks a bit & continues northward for
about 10 feet, then drops to one knee for a bit of cover in the grass
(which certainly wasn’t much!) & starts firing the self bow to
various trolls in turn, starting with an arrow to the one furthest south,
then another to one in the middle of the group of three. She makes sure
her aim is steady with each shot, since her fellows are getting close to
that motley group by the cabin’s corner. She is afraid a miss to the
far troll in that group could hit Rocky, so her 3rd shot goes to the
southernmost troll again. If she has time she will swing her bow around
to the troll by the door & fire two bow shots at it.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>She then quickly
looks over the scene, to spot where her friends are now & where the
trolls are, & if there’s time (on this set of rounds), again heads
north in a crouch, to try to get a look past the troll in the doorway.
She’s pretty sure she’ll need to prepare for melee very soon, &
checks while moving that her saber is ready to be drawn. At the back of
her mind, only half-aware of it, she’s mentally noting where her arrows
have been bouncing off the trolls’ armor. (embarrassing to see that)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>When this is all
over, she’ll be doing grass-crawling to recover any usable arrows, or
arrowheads. Annoying if nothing usable found. All she really knows in her
conscious awareness is that she hates making new arrows while out in the
field. “Ernalda, Earth Mother, please keep me calm & focused so I
am of help here, not grousing about arrows bouncing off armor.� she
mentally chants in silence, as she studies where everyone is, what they
are doing, & listening for any calls of incoming trouble.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Her background
hope is that she can gain the partial cover of the well, to try to see
from there if any more trolls are hidden inside the cabin, but no plan
can be definite at this moment.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Yes not much cover at all east/west of cabin
grass cut short. The rows of the cabin e/w and last column or so in
east no trees/bushes in those rows. So best plan is to break cover
to the well but you'll be seen. Door is closed so may not see much
inside.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Rocky: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Shield ready to
defend, Rocky moves toward the nearest troll to attack it with his sword.
Positioning himself so that his presence won't interfere with missiles
headed for the troll he will fight it till it falls or loses movement
capability then move on to the next (trying to stay in the reach of only
one troll at a time).
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Positioning is critical. With arrows
from SW and if you go behind first troll 2nd will be to your left.
So can't get behind him have to type from 1st's side NW corner of
hex. All 3 if random dice choose you to attack could converge on
you though. Think I said D6?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Klorgar: [Re: Actions]
Klorgar calculates how far a troll is to his position and realizes he
will need to be ready for melee. If he quick fire a shot he will,
otherwise he switches to his axe and readies himself to take this troll
down quickly.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack.

<x-tab> </x-tab>
Varo, still annoyed at the boy, has pushed him out of her
mind for now. If he keeps watching & is seen, one of the trolls might
spot him & raise an alarm to its fellows &, since for the moment
she was apparently being ignored by them, any seen movement by the boy
raises a risk of them also spotting her & spoiling her current plan.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
She prays, 'Ernalda, Earth Mother, please keep me calm &
focused so I am of help here, not grousing about arrows bouncing off
armor.' she mentally chants in silence, as she studies where everyone is,
what they are doing, & listening for any calls of incoming
trouble.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Varo aims at troll #6 and hits in his head! The arrow goes
slightly in and up doing 3 points to his skull past the leather thick
hide. Stupid thick troll heads! The troll turns his head toward her
direction and she gulps. Now she is not ignored and he looks a bit
pissed.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Klorgar does a last quick shot at #6 who now is pissed with
a arrow in his skull. The arrow flies for his right arm but at last
second the troll gets a critical parry and the arrow bounces off almost
reversing itself. If only it had enough force it might've hit
Klorgar but energy and force not there. So it breaks as it falls to
the ground from the critical parry. Klorgar places his bow on his
shoulder and reaches for his melee weapons.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Juno fires at the trolls and the 2 arrows shoot fast.
First one hits #6 again in the head! This time another arrow hits in the
side of his skull doing 6 points. Varo and Juno are both amazed how
can this troll be standing! The second magical arrow flies toward
#4 but is deflected by his shield.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Mournath fires on #4 and the arrow flies just past his
shield so no shield block hitting him in the chest doing 3 points past
his thick armor.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Razgar aims at the trolls but his arrow goes wild.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Rocky moves toward #4 swings his sword at his right side but
the shield is so large the sword splashes on it but not enough damage to
break it.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Juno fires this time at #6 since Rocky has closed in on
#4. But both arrows fail to hit missing entirely.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Jaren raises his sword and charges toward #4 to help Rocky
and swings but almost fumbles his sword as it slips down his wrist but
doesn't fall out of his hand.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Seeing Jaren charge Klorgar moves to help Rocky and
Jared. He ducks a bit and swings his axe hitting the trolls right
leg slicing deep. With the other damage he has taken to his left
leg and sch the troll falls down dead.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Now the two trolls react. The targets are smaller now
Rocky, Jaren, Klorgar and Varo for that one hit in head.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Troll #5 swings his club at Rocky but misses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Troll #6 with 2 arrows in his head turns to Jaren and swings
his club hitting Jaren in the abdomen. Jaren staggers back
stunned.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Suddenly two more trolls appear at the SW corner but not
carrying shields. They must've been on the north side as
well. <x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Razgar and Mournath have difficult shots now with Jaren and
the group by the trolls. But now this new sudden threat the 2 trolls to
their left and north make them both whirl an fire. But both of
their arrows miss in the wild shot.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Varo moves north and tries a final shot at #6 but a arrow
could hit Jaren so too dangerous. She turns to the door guard and
doesn't see him. Ahh There he is hiding around the corner using
cabin as a cover. She fires and misses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Juno aims but has no good shot not even the 2 new trolls at
the SW cause of the 2 at the basin Mournath and Razgar could be
hit. So he decides to break cover and run north.
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Round
8]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Varo and Juno both move further north and toward the cabin.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Klorgar swings at Troll #5 hitting in the right leg and
almost cutting it off. With the chest damage the troll falls dead.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Mournath sees the 2 new trolls only about 20 feet away and
has no choice but to ready for melee. After putting his bow on his
back he draws his weapon and waits for Razgar.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Rocky steps over #5's body moving toward #6 and
swings. But the Troll's shield blocks the strike.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Jaren gasping for air nods to last troll, “...finish ...then
move to cabin!” He backs up a bit to gain his breath .
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Juno moves north holding his fire.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Razgar also has no choice and readies his melee weapons.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Troll #6 clubs Rocky as he fails to block with shield
hitting the dwarf in the abdomen doing 3 points. Rocky staggers
back a foot.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The 2 new trolls move toward Mournath and Razgar but ends up
only about 5 feet away.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Varo continues moving toward Well.
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM:
Actions? Comments?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Next update?....Wednesday?
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM: Combat
can be rough. Rocky and Jaren took some damage. Assuming #6 falls
who will go to cabin? I assume Varo/Juno will eventually move to cabin
itself. Razgar and Mournath will have a fight on their hands. So
either go help them or cabin. Let me know. If no actions
posted will assume move to cabin once #6 falls.
<x-tab> </x-tab>Varo – You
are 40 feet due east of window which is closed. It will take 2
rounds to get to the door. Since door guard is hiding to not get hit with
arrows I assume move to cabin but not grass crawl as that'd slow you
down. Juno would be 1 round behind you if he helped.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Razgar/Mounath – Free to engage BUT if you want to run away for allies to
help you do move faster so possible. Will assume engage #7/8 if not
state otherwise If allies decide to help you out they could reach
you in maybe 1 round maybe might be close.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM: 130
Miles out – personal note for me.
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM: Map -
</b> ! Row = 5 feet
</b> 1 Column = 5 feet
</b> 1 Hex = 10 feet.
</b> /I\ = North up
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Razgar/Mournath – Same as Klorgar if go melee let me
know.
